The Leader of Revolution Muhammad (saw)

The Leader of Revolution

We will no doubt be guilty of irreverence if we consider Prophet Muhammad (SAW) comparable to other leaders of historical revolutions in the world. But, nevertheless, it is a fact that no one in the entire human history deserves the title of “leader of revolution” more than Prophet Muhammad (SAW). 

This is because all revolutions witnessed by mankind — including the French and the Bolshevik Revolutions — were partial and imperfect, as they affected only some part of the collective human existence. Thus, the French Revolution brought change in the political structure and the form of government, while the Bolshevik Revolution mainly changed the economic setup of Russia. 

On the other hand, the Islamic Revolution of the 7th century C.E was a total and absolute transformation which affected all aspects of life. Everything changed. 

• Right from the basic metaphysical beliefs to the ethical value-structure, 
• from the eating and drinking habits to the dynamics of interpersonal relations, 
• from the rites and rituals for worship to ceremonies and customs, and from the social setup and 
• economic system to the political order and statecraft — all underwent radical changes. 

Indeed, this was a Revolution in the true sense of the word.
